Looking Forward To An Afternoon On The Crows


Recommended Posts


Iv got a mirochi OU fixed choke that I stripped and refinished the stock my self.. Cheap and cheerful grafter, trouble is I'm left handed so iv had to adapt my shooting to gun lol. An I like to use a 32g number 5 shot, confidence in the cartridge give me the confidence so shoot those more tricky birds.

 

What are you using?

I've a beretta silver pigeon 1 o/u multi choke but I have it at 1/2 and 3/4 all the time because as with cartridges I find confidence in what your using paramount, I use the Eley pigeon 32g cartridge which is loaded with a 6 1/2 shot which seems to knock the crows out the sky without a problem but has a nice dense pattern, I love them and can't recommend them enough. Sound like a bloody rep lol

Yeah I'm left handed and it annoys me that you have to pay more for left handed guns. I currently shoot with a Rizzini o/u multi choke. It's right handed but I've got used to it. I'm on the crows tomorrow and might have to use the black socks trick

Hi

 

I have been plagued by crows this year, there seems to be more than ever this summer. I have three duck ponds which Iam feeding with corn and barley and the bins are constantly covered by crow crap and Iam sure they are eating the feed too. I have a Larsen trap set with regular sucess and I shoot them as often as possible but I cant seem to put a hole in them. Just out of interest what do you do with the dead crows?.

 

Cheers Joe
